Green Roofing and HVAC Products to Post Double-Digit Gains by 2011 as Homeowners Capitalize on Government Incentive to Remodel Efficiently

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - November 5, 2009) - The market for energy-efficient heating and
cooling (HVAC) products and exterior roofing products will experience
double-digit growth by 2011 as American homeowners regain confidence in the
economy and capitalize on the expanded government tax credits for green
home remodeling, according to "Energy-Efficient Home Renovations Market,
Part 3: HVAC & Roofing" by leading industrial market research publisher SBI
Energy.

First announced earlier in 2009, the tax credits are part of the Obama
administration's ongoing support of energy efficiency as a means to
decrease U.S. dependency on foreign fuels and reduce greenhouse gases. In
the one year alone, the administration has provided more money to advance
energy efficiency programs across the board than in the last decade
combined. Going into 2010, portions of this vast sum of energy efficiency
money will also be matched by each state, further growing the pool of
available funds for the initiative.

Ultimately, the government provisions are expected to generate an estimated
$6 billion in green remodeling work by the end of next year, according to
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO).

"Beyond 2010, we project that all residential energy-efficient roofing and
HVAC product segments will follow the anticipated rise in the construction
and remodeling cycle that will occur as a result of the government
stimulus," says Shelley Carr, publisher of SBI Energy.

Overall, SBI Energy forecasts the HVAC product segment will post a compound
annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16% from 2009 to 2013, reaching a market value
exceeding $5 billion by the end of the forecast period. Meanwhile,
residential roofing will explode from 2011 to 2013, posting sales increases
of 20% to 30% in each of those years, finishing with almost $3 billion in
sales by 2013.

"Energy-Efficient Home Renovations Market, Part 3: HVAC & Roofing" is the
final installment in a three part series. This edition highlights two
specific home improvement product segments: energy heating and cooling
(HVAC) products and exterior roofing products. Along with analyzing the
economic factors affecting the energy-efficient home remodeling market, the
report explores the trends that are driving renovations and examines the
market potential of energy-efficient home renovations in the U.S. through
to 2013.

The previous reports in the Energy-Efficient Home Renovations series are
also available. Published in July, Part 1 explores the market for
energy-efficient doors and windows, caulking and weather stripping, and
insulation used in home renovation projects. Part 2, published in August,
examines the energy-efficient appliance and lighting markets for home
remodeling. For further information, visit:
